Either that or he is locking down the state. He has been quite pissed that people are still treating this like a spring break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool. How about more pay? My ID badge that has my company name on it will be my permission slip if VA gets to the point of NY, CA, IL, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly how can you even 'enforce' It? If you get pulled over all you have to say if your driving around to find grocery stores that have a particular product or you're going to a relatives house who needs care...honestly all the words are just words Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of milk and OJ and a couple other things. Hoping the Giant near me has slowly been able to restock stuff. My wife is out attempting a fresh veggie run right now, hitting up Kingstowne Giant/Safeway by default. She's tried the Alexandria Wegman's a couple times over the past week, at various times of the day, but it's typically picked over with the added bonus of checkout lines extending halfway back into the store.

snowfan Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 These were natural next steps to take and make sense. As you read the list, you'll see that many, many business types are included in the list of essential. It's too soon to shut down schools for the remainder of the academic year given the 2.5 months remaining on the schedule. That said, I imagine a further delay will be announced after the board mtg tmrw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its okay to run to the grocery store. its okay to go out on the local trail. Just be smart about it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
